182 (Closes: #234685)
183 * Implement an ugly workaround for the 10000-character limit on the
184 Binaries field in debSrcRecordParser, until such time as some things
185 can be converted over to use STL data types (ABI change) (Closes: #236688)
186 * Increase default tagfile buffer from 32k to 128k; this arbitrary limit
187 should also be removed someday (Closes: #174945)

198 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov
199 <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)
200 * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files
201 being out of sync with each other (important with Release.gpg)
202 * Add an assert() to make sure that we don't overflow a fixed-size
203 buffer in the very unlikely event that someone adds 10 packaging
204 systems to apt (Closes: #233678)
205 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
206 made it tricky to type, again. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
207 <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #234494)

209 available (Closes: #233681)
210 * Point to Build-Depends in COMPILING (Closes: #233669)
211 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
212 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
213 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
214 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
215 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)
216 * Don't translate "Yes, do as I say!" in Chinese locales, because it can
217 be difficult to input (Closes: #234886)

228 (Closes: #229722)

247
248 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
249 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
250 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
251 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)

258 exists in the database" (Closes: #212203)

333 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
334 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
335 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
336 Closes: #221728
337 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
338 * Update apt-cache(8)
339 - Document --installed

345 * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update
346 * Pass --preserve-envvar PATH --preserve-envvar CCACHE_DIR to debuild. apt
347 takes a long time to build, and ccache helps

352
353 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
354 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
355 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
356 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an
357 or-expression is not available
358 * Add a Debug::BuildDeps to generate some trace output
359 * Help apt-get build-dep produce more useful error messages
360 * Process build-dependencies in forward rather than reverse order
361 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
362 build-dependency
363 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
364 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
365 virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
366 discouraged for automated processing (but still common,

378 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
379 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
380 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd
381 rather they always match what is in CVS.

442 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
443 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
444 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
445 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
446 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
447 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
448 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
449 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
450 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
451 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
452 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
453 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
454 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
455 written by a single write(2)
456 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore

459 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
460 (Closes: #200425)
461 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
462 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
463 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them
464 (Closes: #200102)

468 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
469 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
470 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
471 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
472 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
473 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
474 (Closes: #194614)
475 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
476 (Closes: #146667)
477 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
478 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
479 (Closes: #194282)
480 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
481 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
482 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
483 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
484 will add them
485 - echo 3 > debian/compat
486 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
487 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
488 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
489 password (Closes: #199425)
490 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
491 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
492 with our SGML man pages
493 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
494 fragments are properly substituted

501 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
502 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
503 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
504 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)

509 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
510 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
511 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
512 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
513 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)
514 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20030717.1
515 * Tweak SGML in apt-extracttemplates.1.sgml so that literal '>' doesn't end
516 up in output

520 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
521 to have this problem
522 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
